The objective of this study is to evaluate the work of the post-humanist contemporary American poet Jorie Graham as exemplified in “Runaway.” The tenets of post-humanism, the most recent philosophical and critical theory are surveyed in selected poems of “Runaway.” Some poems are dedicated to identifying the severity of the dreadful ecological crisis. Others are assigned to visualizing the future of humanity in light of the technological revolution which the world witnesses today. For example, artificial intelligent agents are introduced in these poems foreshadowing what has really happened later on. By adopting the analytical and textual method, the researcher investigates the theoretical framework, the post-humanist approach, throughout selected poems of Graham’s “Runaway.”

تستهدف هذه الدراسة تقييم شعر الكاتبة الأمريكية المعاصرة جوري جراهام من منظور ما بعد الإنسانية الفلسفي النقدي الذي ساد الأوساط النقدية في الآونة الاخيرة وذلك من خلال تحليل قصائد مختارة من ديوانها الشعري "هروب" والذي نشرته سنة 2020. وباستعراض هذه النخبة المنتقاة من القصائد اتضح للباحث أن شعرها يعكس ظلال المشكلة البيئية العميقة التي يعاني منها العالم اليوم على الإنسان في حياته اليومية. كما تقدم مجموعة أخرى من قصائد الديوان تصورًا لما ستؤول إليه حياة الإنسان على الكوكب الأرضي في المستقبل القريب. ولذلك تدعو جراهام قراءها لاستشراف حياتهم في المستقبل و التي تختلف كليًا عن واقعهم المعاصر بفعل الثورة التكنولوجية التي يشهدها العالم اليوم.
